Joke’s on you! I can never afford a C8 until I am as old as current old Boomers.

Truest statement of them all.

Honestly, I just couldn’t give shit about any of this “left  vs. right” shit anymore.

Will really be interesting to see how their gamble pays off.

Hopefully they’ll be handsomely rewarded for their bravery.

GM must be very proud of itself for grabbing the car culture, and turning it so successfully.

They tried to pull a ‘ Steve Jobs’ ... and may have actually done it.

The difference is that Reuss is an actual mechanical engineer and not a marketing guy taking credit for others' work.

Torn between red or black for the exterior and either black, black with red stitching or tan for the interior. I really wasn't expecting this to hit in the same price range as the ZL1 but I am glad it did.

I am not sure Steve Jobs ever said that he himself did the work that his employees did... but the head/face of the company ‘is’ the company in almost all instances, for better or worse.

For every marketing guy or executive that gets recognized as the face of a company or product, for something someone else implemented...

...there is probably also an engineer, technician, or other person who did something good, but that went nowhere because it didn’t catch on with anyone else, without being marketed and sold.

Xerox is not one of the largest cap companies in the world, before Mac OS popularized GUI computing, then OS X and iMac did it again.

The Apple Newton didn’t catch on... nor did some other good, but not common PDAs, before the iPod, and then the iPhone became a technological juggernaut, and before the iPad made cheap laptops and netbooks obsolete.

Some of it is tech... some of it is realizing how people use tech, and making it fun, easy, and popular, to make that tech successful.

I give him credit for being a great marketer. The guy was charismatic as hell, and was a great salesman. And yeah, everyone does their part, but the lionization of the guy is ridiculous. He didn’t have to take credit for anything. The average person believes t hat he invented the mp3 player, the smartphone, and the tablet. All of those things were around before Apple slapped an “i” o n them.

Steve Jobs was  the modern day Edison. Stealing other people’s ideas and using salesmanship to profit from them.
